Adding Sony, that makes it 4 of 4

I posted last month an article (Amazon's MP3 store is better than Apple's) about how 3 of the 4 major record labels now distribute DRM-free music via Amazon's MP3 store. Well, Amazon just announced that they have reached an agreement with Sony BMG to distribute its catalog via there store, which now makes 4 of the 4 major record labels to reach such an agreement.

In July of 2007 iTunes surpassed Amazon to become the 3rd largest distributor of music in terms of sales, but that statistic includes physical CD sales. It will be interesting to see how this changes over the next year now that Amazon offers a bigger catalog for DRM-free music in downloadable MP3 format.
